        Happy Friday! This will be my last Friday Focus for the 20-21 school year. I know some of you are cheering right now.  First off, thank you for all you have done this year. I know words can't express how much I appreciate working with a great staff. You really do make my job easy as I can be there to support you. This has been the year if you were ever going to throw in the towel you would do it. Each and everyone you have made sacrifices and worked more extra hours than anyone on the outside will ever know or understand.  As we draw near the end of the year, just some reminders of things that will need to happen before you leave for the summer. 1. Make sure all grades are entered and you have finalized your gradebook. If you don't remember, I had shared a video made by an old wise man, Adam Moss. Make sure you tell him I said old.  2. Make sure you fill out the textbook inventory form. I shared this document with you so you can start working o...

      Happy Friday! I hope everyone had an enjoyable week. Today is the last day for regular class for the seniors. They will need to sign out today if they are not taking semester tests. Seniors will take their semester tests on Monday and Tuesday. I am going to request that all test be completed by the end of 4th period on Tuesday, so you can get grades entered that afternoon/night and then Amy can finish figuring out the awards right away Wednesday morning. I will store grades Wednesday when I get here at 6:50.  The awards ceremony is Wednesday at 6:30 pm in the middle school auditorium. At this time, there is no attendance restrictions, but masks will be required. The early forecast for the 23rd looks good, 75 and partly cloudy. Hopefully, I don't jinx anything.  Please continue to be visible between classes in the hallway. We have seen an increase in school is about over behavior. Masks are still required to be worn in the buildings when you are not by your...

    Happy Friday! I hope everyone had a great week! We were able to get the ISASP out of the way. Melissa and Judd will be working on getting the students that were absent scheduled to take the tests next week.  I wanted to take take one more moment to thank you for all you have done this year. The 2020-2021 school year has been a different and sometimes stressful year. According to the news, the Pfizer vaccine is set to become available to students ages 12 and older. Hopefully, this will allow us to put this year behind us and move to a new sense of normal.  These last 14 days of school will go by fast. Just to review dates, the seniors last day of normal class is May 14, semester tests will be on the 17 and 18th. Seniors will need to take the test during your class period. I do not have someone available to proctor them. They do need to be taken on Monday or Tuesday. They can not take them on Friday so they don't have to come to school on those days. Grades will be...
